I don’t think I care in all honesty. I asked a question because I’m only 17 and I need ppl to lmk what’s up. I’m not standing before a panel of Hopkins graduates. Mind you lol isn’t shitty grammar. As I have said I’m literally a teenager I know when to use lol and when not to. We’re not idiots

I’ve written countless of research papers at a high school level the longest being 45 pages, in which I was analyzing protein synthesis. I am currently writing one about the plausibility of editing a human embryo to have a heterogenous advantage against malaria using Cas 9 Crispr. Im looking for this to later be published. I currently intern at the NIH and at Labcorp. On a subreddit i will not be using professional grammar because it quite frankly doesn’t warrant that. I will not be belittled for using causal grammar in a casual space. Don’t try and lecture me, when you haven’t a single ounce of knowledge when it comes to my intellectual level. Remove the log out of your eye before you belittle me for the spec in mine. I won’t be pushed around by some Reddit geezer looking to troll people to make them feel better about their miserable lives :>

I have done friends doing a MDPhD, very ambitious. Your school will matter a lot, so I don't recommend Pace or NY Tech at all. If you can get into NYU, it's much better

Can you look into any of your other schools will let you do a semester exchange at a nyc school for a semester? It might be a nice compromise

This dude commented that in the attempt to belittle me please don’t be dense. My use of slang doesn’t take away from the fact I needed ppl to weigh in. I wrote like 2 paragraphs I think that’s serious enough. I am a 17 year old girl needing a few opinions. It’s really never that deep

I occasionally listened to the first ten minutes or so of this program, inadvertently, after forgetting to switch away after Morning Edition. Happy to hear that it's cancelled -- hopefully it will be replaced by something better, but given the trend in public radio, that's not too likely (I used to listen to NPR quite a few hours a week, subscribe, etc., but that was twenty years ago -- I hardly ever find myself listening to anything but the BBC on WNYC now). I tend to call it, in my head, National Public Race and Gender Radio. My heuristic is to occasionally give it a try, but the first mention of racial/gender identity, I give it a rest -- it's rarely more than 5 or 10 minutes. Apparently, supplementary DEI training is what their main audience is there for these days.

you say you love learning, yet you skip this opportunity to do so? being serious, if you are into genetics SF Bay has a large biotech hub and USF would connect you to opportunities there. considering it also is supporting your costs you should certainly consider it.
